Laughed at the "surprising an Ent" when I saw the full size picture, eyes and all.
www.remotemoto.com - a serious site for serious ADV riders, the ultimate resource in the making.
Check out my videos on Youtube including... the 2011 Dusty Butt 1K - Awakino Challenge and others.
Hey Jatz if Nordie has your DVDs can I borrow them after him? Nordie if this is ok with Jatz I'll pick them up maybe this weekend.
Might be up for a ride tomm avo? Prob only 2 - 21/2 hrs though. Anyone doing anything? Jatz did you go out today?
Went for a short blast yesterday & stood on the pegs coming a long Whakatu dr. The tail wind was so strong I felt no wind on my face - nice...
NMCC Laid Back trail ride tomorrow. I'm about to fit proper kNobblies to the 640A, and will nanna around the main loop tomorrow. Depending on how brave I feel (read: how wet and greasy it is), I might even tackle some of the A-grade loops... preferably after a recce on my mate's FE450 'Berg.
Cheers,
Colin

Might be keen tomorrow, will see how I feel in the morning, Mrs jatz is dropping serious hints about going fishing.
BTW Nordie I only put 24L in the tank, reakon I would have got home on what was in the tank when I left you
There was only a slight breeze up in the hills as opposed to the gale it was blowing in Nelson today.
Perfect conditions for a solo ride...
Or a group ride come to that
Mrs Jatz in the rough stuff on the little Tenere...
Jatz hard at work on the Big...
Getting warmer so off with some layers...
The fast...
And the not so fast...
Failing to fall off in the mud...
Following that damn boat...
I could probably sort you out with something... got some old Dunlop D756 intermediates that would probably fit. The front is nicely polished & rounded from years of sand use at Woodhill. Waiting for some Hira/Maungatapu action to finish those ones off in the rocks. When they open Hira again we should do some exploring; plenty of adventure/trail to be had in there.
Cheers,
Colin
